In general, considerable work is being carried out to improve the inventories.
Investigations and research carried out in Denmark and abroad produce
new results and findings which are given consideration and, to the extent
which is possible, are included as the basis for emission estimates and as
data in the inventory databases. Furthermore, the updates of the
EMEP/CORINAIR guidebook (Now the EMEP/EEA Guidebook), and the
work of the Task Force on Emission Inventories and its expert panels are followed
closely in order to be able to incorporate the best scientific information
as the basis for the inventories. The further important references in this
regard are the IPCC guidelines and IPCC good practice guidance.
The implementation of new results in inventories is made in a way so that
improvements, as far as possible, better reflect Danish conditions and circumstances.
This is in accordance with good practice. Furthermore, efforts
are made to involve as many experts as possible in the reasoning, justification
and feasibility of implementation of improvements.
In improving the inventories, care is taken to consider implementation of
improvements for the whole time series of inventories to make it consistent.
Such efforts lead to recalculation of previously submitted inventories. This
submission includes recalculated inventories for the whole time series. The
reasoning for the recalculations performed is to be found in the sectoral
chapters of this report. The text below focuses on recalculations, in general,
and further serves as an overview and summary of the relevant text in the
sectoral chapters. For sector specific planned improvements please also refer
to the relevant sectoral chapters.

Improvements and updates of the Danish energy statistics are made regularly
by the producer of the statistics, the Danish Energy Agency. In close
cooperation with the DEA, these improvements and updates are reflected in
the emission inventory for the energy sector. The Danish energy statistics
have, for the most part, been aggregated to the SNAP categorisation. This,
however, does not include energy statistics for fuel consumption data for
specific industries.
The inventories are still being improved through work to increase the number
of large point sources, e.g. power plants, included in the databases as individual
point sources. Such an inclusion makes it possible to use plantspecific
data for emissions, etc, available e.g. in annual environmental reports
from the plants in question.

For stationary combustion plants, the emission estimates for the years 1990-
2009 have been updated according to the latest energy statistics published
by the Danish Energy Agency. The update included both end use and transformation
sectors as well as a source category update.
